Did You Hear About My First Semester at College?

Archie Brown turned 18 about two weeks before he left home for college four hundred miles from home. He had led something of a sheltered life. When he arrived at school, away from the constant accountability to his parents, he was less than responsible about being a good student.

In fact Archie was all about having some fun. He played ball in the afternoon, dated in the evening and played poker most of the night. That left little time to sleep. He decided the best time for a bit of shut eye was during class time. At the end of the first semester, his grade demonstrated Archie had played too hard. His grade point average was 1.57 in a 4 point grading system.
